US teachers peddling same ‘woke ideologies’ taught in North Korea, defector says

A defector from North Korea said Tuesday “woke ideologies” taught in American classrooms are no different from those taught in the classrooms in her home country.

“When I came to America, having no idea, I thought somehow this was a free country where individuals can have different thoughts and opinions. When I started university at Columbia University, I couldn’t believe because they were exactly saying the same things that my North Korean teachers told me in the North Korean classroom,” Yeonmi Park, author of the book “While Time Remains: A North Korean Defector’s Search for Freedom in America,” told Fox News host Sandra Smith.

“They said all the problems that we have in the world is because of the greedy capitalism and also the Western civilization and white man,” Park, who defected from North Korea in 2007, said. “That was the exact same thing that my North Korean teachers told me, that all the evils was because of USA and capitalism.”

The contents of school curricula became a hot-button political issue in 2021 as parents protested the use of Critical Race Theory, which holds that America is fundamentally racist, and teaches people to view every social interaction and person in terms of race…

Just finishing up her new book “While Time Remains”. Interestingly enough, she goes into some detail as to how she was radicalized to hate Trump when she lived in New York only to understand how much collusion there was among leftists, academia, and the media there was to paint him as the enemy - truth be damned.

She defected in 2007. I recall seeing interviews with her years ago.

I’d bet that N. Korea and China aren’t teaching school kids to ‘transition’. They just want US to weaken ourselves that way.

The only difference is the jargon - instead of “proletariat,” neo-marxists here say “LGBTQ,” or “Minorities,” or “Transgenders,” etc...

Otherwise, the ideology, methods and consequences are typically Marxist.

WE are the (neo) Marxists now, and we are attempting to spread it around the world.

Yes, they can walk right up to Dear Leader’s desk and say, “America is systemically racist! They had slavery and lynchings, and are against having their children getting their pishy parts altered.”

Yeonmi Park

TTIUWP!

In addition to being extremely well-spoken, Yeonmi is extremely 'not guilty'.

If that’s true what will the military response be to the Communist regime in public schools.

In Chile there was a response to the Communist regime on September 11, 1973...

Jordan Peterson interviewed Yeonmi Park in 2021.

Here's the interview. It should be required viewing for woke "victims" of American "oppression." North Korea is hell on earth.

“When I came to America, having no idea, I thought somehow this was a free country”

Should have believed Kim, the days of the US as a ‘free’ country ended when the GOP stopped fighting the Democrats.
